Christmas Baking

My children helped me to bake cupcakes and cookies this year.

We decorated them as reindeer and melting snowmen.

While I played chauffeur, my youngest son, wearing his Santa hat, 

delivered plates of goodies to the doors of our friends and family.

We really enjoyed surprising everyone with these home-made

gifts and are already growing our delivery list for next year.

From our house to yours,

Merry Christmas!

Enjoy a safe and happy holiday season!

Cheers!

 CHOCOLATE  PASTE  ROSES

On Friday, March 28th, my mother-in-law

celebrated her 65th birthday. I decided to make 

a chocolate paste recipe that I'd seen on Pinterest.

Below are my roses and leaves that I'd made from 

my heart shaped cookie cutter.

I traced my cake pans onto a large sheet of sketching paper so that I could practice making my arrangement.

I used a small brush and painted the words onto the 

cut-outs using a blue food colouring.

I made an extra little cake just in case!
